I sure hope so, since Konami doesn't seem to care about making Castlevania anymore.

I would say that about stuff like Suikoden or Contra. They are still actively using the IP with the Lords of Shadow series.

Sure it might not be something you like or recognize it as Castlevania, but it is what it is.

Well I really just meant returning to the two kinds of Castlevania games of the original timeline. Let's face it though, they're only slapping "Castlevania" on Lords of Shadow for brand recognition (which probably isn't even helping considering the small number of old Castlevania fans that like LoS).

Doesn't help that LoS2 is in fact being slammed left and right as a terrible game...

The braid is fine, but I never really got the exposed midriff as a creative/fashionabluh choice. The one chick I knew who did it was at my local YMCA and she cut it out of her tank top to show off her six pack (she *is* a personal trainer, though). Meh.

...I wonder why the lightning was changed. x)

Gameplay looks fancy and chaotic. Curious for reviews first.

If it helps any, they've since restored the Braid to the western version.

Anyways, I haven't posted about it since there really wasn't all that much to go on beyond Inti-creates is making Megaman Zero 5/ZX 3.

I only found out about this game *because* of the censorship "scandal".

With Kickstarters it's explicitly laid out that "if we make x amount of money, y and z will be in the game", how much they made over their basic goal really isn't relevant since this is for completely different features.

That being said, yes it's greed, of course it is. So is making the game to begin with, honestly.

Obviously a smarter dev would instead just overestimate the required money for everything and then come out later saying "look guys, we made this extra stuff for the fans too" and make it seem like they were being fan-friendly, but oh well. I'm just not going to bother donating since I don't care for English voices. I just wanted the game to be made, don't really care about all this extra stuff.

Although really, you'd think an English voice cast would fall under the creation of the game, especially if there's already going to be Japanese voice acting. Inafune took the project to Kickstarter and I'm sure he knew he had lots of western fans so the fact that he's asking extra for a full localization is pretty lame.

I'm more irritated that they want cash to put extra stuff in the game. Fuck you, if you have time to ask for more money to add shit, release the game and add it in a future dlc or something stupid. As it is, a 2 year development schedule seems extremely long for a simple platformer, but then a 4 million dollar budget and no publisher on your ass to speed it up and get their money back? I mean shit, it's not like the backers get a % of what their game brings in....this whole thing is starting to sound like a giant scheme. And that's hard for me to say because I love megaman, but I've been slighted by his owners before.
